According to the release, the man met a 17-year-old girl online and asked her for nude photos. He then met her downtown and took her back to his apartment in the Front St. W. and York St. area, where he sexually assaulted her, police said. According to the release, he then gave her a birth control pill to take.

Const. Allyson Douglas-Cook said she could not say when the incident happened because of the case’s “sensitive nature.”
